This is a piece of religious history. The compound contains ancient historical churches, mosques, and a synagogue. It includes where it is believed that Jesus and Mary hid there for 3 months. There is fee to enter the compound. We also went to the historical Amr bin Ase. There are also some active churches where people pray. We spent a good day in history.

I visited this place with an egyptian friend. Police harassed and threatened her for no reason, they almost detained her. We had to leave very scared. Policemen here are bullies. Never visit this place with local people, because they can get arrested for no reason.

Old wall and they use this wall for taken water to the citdal . There are amazing museum as well and it's huage one for Coptic period . All the area is look like open museum

Beautiful place to visit to witness a lot of historical and religious landmarks. I would always advice to have a knowledgeable tour guide with you ( you will find plenty there) that will show you around with an extra cost of course. The place is free to enter, even for tourists. The only area that you have to pay is if you want to enter the museum.

A journey through time that takes your souls to the alleys and streets resembling ancient Jerusalem, to seep into you a unique spiritual state that you can only feel in the alleys and streets of the complex of religions in ancient Egypt. During its history, it embraced three diverse cultures dating back to 3 sacred heavenly religions, and played an important role in history, due to its spiritual status, which brings it together with Egypt, in which the owners of the three religions lived, which was the cause of the similarity between the area of ​​the complex of religions and the city of Jerusalem, especially since Egypt embraced the journey of the Holy Family.

The ancient history and mesmerizing Egyptian culture and history is here. This was a very spiritual experience and one of the best historical places I have been to in Cairo from the hanging church to the great Mosque of عمر ابن العاص the whole place is well secured and it’s truly preserved it’s a must in old Cairo and shows the authentic Egyptian history. The metro access will drop you infront if the amazing hanging church
